Marriage is a fundamental institution authored
by God and “written
in the very nature of
man and
woman”.
(Catechism of the Catholic Church, no. 1603)
From generation to generation, the
institution of marriage has been the cornerstone
of family life and societal well-being.
For two millennia the teaching of the
Catholic Church on the meaning of marriage has
positively influenced both culture and society.

The vocation of marriage is
a unique call to an adventure of love and life,
where love is life-giving in a matchless way.
The core meaning of marriage cannot be
separated from a consideration of the child and
the roles of a mother and a father.
Marriage is the fundamental and
irreplaceable pro-child social institution.
